"Middle East Electricity 2013 comes at a very important time for the Prysmian Group to reinforce its
strong presence in the Middle East, a key area for the Company's expansion strategy, where the
Group is already carrying out several strategic power cable projects especially in the Extra High

The Group's product portfolio at MEE 2013 will focus on the full range of state-of-the-art power
cables including HV and EHV underground and submarine cable systems for applications such as
interconnections between power grids, links between natural or artificial islands and the mainland,
and connections to, or between, offshore oil production and wind power generation facilities.
These include the first-ever submarine power transmission link serving Doha and the GCC Saudi-
Bahrain submarine interconnection and the 400 kV power transmission system for TRANSCO
connecting the Bahia and Saadiyat Grid Stations in Abu Dhabi, which represents the largest 400 kV
underground cable system in the region (triple circuit route of 25 km for a total of 230 km of
extruded insulation cable) and the largest EHV XLPE cable system in the world (in terms of contract
value) ever awarded to a single supplier.
